WHY RICHMONDER?

How disappointed I was to see a ``native of Richmond'' pictured carrying the Olympic torch on the front page of the June 23 Sunday paper!

Rosa Edwards' picture on Page A12 was terrific and would have looked great on the front page. Also, a group picture of all the Hampton Roads people who were torch bearers would have been nice.

Perhaps the Richmond Times-Dispatch had Rosa's picture on the front page?
